Baby Niles’s nursery is absolutely picture-perfect. Everything in his room is so cute and cohesive — letters, pictures, lots of elephants (Anna’s favorite animal), and their very protective puppy guarding baby Niles the whole time. [ read more … ]

Meet four-day-old Maximus — Xavier’s new little brother! It’s been a pleasure documenting Ruth’s family every few months for the past two years. I was so happy to meet this little guy and as you can see, so was his big brother!!

Lots of kisses and snuggles and TONS of love 🙂

Meet one-week-old Vivian! She is such a great little model with a good temper and she sure knows how to smile at the camera! Bonnie and Judson were constantly amazed by Vivian’s daily change. Let’s see… Vivian lost her umbilical stump to reveal her new belly button on the day of the photo shoot, and she had just learned to put fingers (sometime her whole little hand) into her mouth and make funny sounds with it. She has so many facial expressions and I got some really cute ones!

Bonnie and Jud’s puppy, Miss Georgia, joined us at the end of the session and she was soooo happy but very gentle towards Vivian — it melted my heart! She gave out lots of sweet kisses and we got some great family pictures for the four of them 🙂

We all have been waiting for Luna to come to this world! She is a healthy and beautiful baby 😀 Luna may appear to be a deep sleeper judging by the photos, but that was not quite true — she’s about a month old now and her sleep pattern is constantly changing! She would wake up to any light movement during the photo shoot, but thanks to Mom and Grandma, we got some really cute shots. Look at Luna in her cute Little Mermaid and Minnie Mouse costume!!

I photographed Ruth’s maternity session back in late July. About a month later little Xavier came to this world a little earlier than planned. So when Ruth contacted me, I was super excited to meet him!

He is so tiny that you just can’t help to love and protect him. Life is really precious and wonderful!

Meet Xavier… Ta-dah!
